Hello friends,

I received the following mail about a possible fireball on May 27 in
Colorado. Is there anybody in the US who has more information?

Cheers, Sirko

Maybe you can give me more information.  On May 27th (Saturday) we were 
camping in Colorado, between Fairplay and Buena Vista in a National Forest 
area called Salt Creek.  It was about 10:45 PM we were sitting around a 
campfire and the sky lit up.  We saw a large fiery object traveling through 
the sky from a N-NW direction.  We asked other people camping around us and 
they saw it too.  It went over a mountain and out of our sight.  
Approximately 2-3 minutes later we all heard a large rumble and we felt the 
ground shake.  Have you heard any reports of a meteor from that night?  
Please contact me with any information.  We are all very interested.

Thank you, 

Gayle Belvin
